ABSTRACT
The aim of this book is to shine a light on the neglected area of project ethics in project management with practising project leaders and managers as the main target audience. We will explore project ethics using a set of practical decisionmaking tools to navigate around problems by reference to a value system that incorporates our human nature and our motivations in the broadest sense. The text includes a discussion on the nature of ethics, provides a series of practical examples to illustrate the range of grey-area problems and how to present dilemmas that may be encountered in project management, and suggests how these can be approached. This book is international in its scope. However, it uses a few illustrations from Iceland, owing to the authors ' greater familiarity with events there, and the belief that these provide a prism through which the relevant concepts can be understood more readily.
